4.Passage OneEvery year just after Christmas the January Sales start. All the shops reduce their prices and for two weeks, there are full of people looking for bargains. My husband and I do not normally go to the sales as we don't like crowds and in any case are short of money as we have to buy lots of Christmas presents.Last year, however, I took my husband with me to the sales at the large shop in the center of London. We both needed some new clothes and were hoping to find a television set. When we got to Oxford Street, it was so crowded that we decided to split up and meet again at the underground station. So I left my husband and started looking around the shops. Unfortunately all the clothes were in very large sizes and so were not suitable for me. But I did buy a television at a very cheap price, so I felt quite pleased with myself.When I arrived at the station, my husband was not there. So I sat down in a nearby cafe to have a cup of tea. I quickly finished my tea when I saw my husband and went out to meet him. He looked very happy. Then I saw he was carrying a large and heavy cardboard box."Oh, dear!"I thought. Yes ,we had no new clothes but two television. We shall not be going to the sales again. After their day's shopping, they__________.

6.根据以下资料，回答50-53题。 　　Years ago, a cigarette commercial asked if you were smoking more, but enjoying it less．That describes the way many of us live today．We are doing more, but enjoying it less．And when that doesn't work, we get the problem．In our extremely hurried search for satisfaction, we try stuffing still more into our days, never realizing that we are taking the wrong approach. 　　The truth is simple; so simple it is hard to believe．Satisfaction lies with less, not with more．Yet, we pursue the myth that this thing, or that activity, will somehow provide the satisfaction we so desperately seek. 　　Arthur Lindman, in his very effective book, "The Harried Leisure Class," described the uselessness of pursuing more．His research focused on what people did with their leisure time．He found that as income rose, people bought more things to occupy their leisure time．But, ironically, the more things they bought, the less they valued any one of them．Carried to an extreme, he predicted massive boredom in the midst of tremendous variety．That was more than twenty years ago, and his prediction seems more accurate every year. Lindman of course, is not the first to discover this．The writer of Ecclesiastes expressed the same thought thousands of years ago．It is better, he wrote, to have less, but enjoy it more. 　　If you would like to enjoy life more, I challenge you to experiment with me．How could you simplify your life? What could you drop? What could you do without? What could you stop pursuing? What few things could you concentrate on? 　　The more I learn, the more I realize that fullness of life does not depend on things．The more I give up, the more I seem to gain．But words will never convince you．You must try it for yourself．52 We can make our life happier if we __.

It ’s all very exciting. 65 several months of eager expectation, the day finally 66 . You pack your bags and off you go.

17.One of the most interesting experiments in electronic communication I’ve ever seen is coming from Wave. It’s real-time e-mail,What that means is that as you’re typing a message in Wave,either a new massage or a reply ,the person you are writing to can see what you’re typing as you type it .Sounds awful, right?You don’t have to use W ave in this real-time way . It also works as a standard e-mail. What’s really different about Wave is that if you’re replying to a massage and the person you’re replying to happen to be online,they can jump into the conversation at that point, and change what is an emailconversation into an instant message conversation or a chat.Wave right now is still closed to most users . And Wave isn’t yet connected to other communication systems,like regular e-mail , which means that the only people we can Wave with are other people on waves as well. So we don’t yet know what using Wave will be like once it gets crowded like e-mail . Also,the technology behind Wave is far more demanding on servers and the Internet itself than regular e-mail or chat,so we don’t know if the technology will work at scale .But Wave really is a current re-think of e-mail . A lot of people won’t like it . A lot of people didn’t like e-mail either when it first showed up .but people will find real uses for Wave or whatever it becomes, and it’s one of the most interesting new takes on communication . Even if you don’t like it, it will make you think differently about e-mail.What is the auther’s attitude toward Wave?
